Hey! How’s it going?

Lets start with you answering these 4 questions and then let me show how to fix the “no’s”

Do you sell supplements or made-to-order meals in your fitness business?

Is your fitness business making as much money as you feel it should?

Are your clients getting the results they are looking for?

Are you happy with what you are doing?

The answers to these  questions reveal a lot about your fitness business and the chances you have being successful long term.

As a fitness business owner myself, I know the frustrations that you have with members cancelling, clients not showing up for their sessions, and the biggest disappointment for me is when a client just gives up and doesn’t believe they can change their body.

If you are fitness professional, then you’re going to get a lot out of this blog because I am going to be revealing 3 profit centers that you may or may not be aware of.

But before I get into that, I want to describe exactly what a profit center is.

A profit center is a doorway in which revenue comes into your fitness business, while at the same time improves the customers experience, helps to sale another product or service, and forces your brand in your market.

As I said before, I am a fitness business owner myself.  My wife & I run a small bootcamp with 2 location in Mobile, Alabama. Now, Alabama is one of the fastest states for  reason. People around here are obese, don’t know how to eat properly, and would rather spend their money on pick up trucks and tree stands.

Now don’t get me wrong, I was born and raised in the South, and I love the South. But it gets really frustrating when you are trying to help someone and their priorities are not in the right place. I’m sure you feel the same way.

Needless to say, personal trainers and bootcamps in the South have a much harder time than other locations in the US. And this is not only my experience, but a statistical fact. On the other side of the coin, gyms in the South have statistically done very well.

The main reasoning is that gyms and health clubs typically have more profit centers than bootcamps or personal trainers.

So when my wife and I decided to open Victory Fit Camp, we decided to be a profit center rich fitness business. We have several profit centers working our business, but I am going to talk about our 3 most profitable.

Supplement Sales for a Fitness Business

When a new member joins your club, or a new client hires you to train them, they have a lot of expectations. Expectations that sometimes can be impossible, but never the less is what they want.  They may want to lose weight, get stronger, or just feel better. But no matter what their reason for joining your program or club, it all boils down to 1 thing…they want to look better.

When this new member joins your health club or personal training business, the next thing for them to do is go out and buy supplements and workout gear.

So let me ask you a question? Would you rather your clients buy their products from GNC or offline, or would you rather them give you their cold hard cash and improve your profits this year.

The truth of the matter is, if you don’t sale it do them, they are going to buy it somewhere else. And I don’t know about you, but I am not going to refuse to take someones money (most of the time).

So you may be curious as to what supplement line we carry in our fitness business. Before I tell you that, you better be very careful before you start to offer supplements to people in your fitness business. They are not all created the same and some are dangerous, if not deadly.

I’ve taken 2 GNC products that have almost killed me. One hospitalized me 3 different times, so I’m speaking from experience. You better be careful.

I was so nervous about selling supplements that for a moment I considered not even doing it…what a dumb decision that would have been. I was blessed enough to find a product that not only is endorsed and recommended by every pro sports association, but it is the only nutrition/supplement company that tests for all 200 banned substances for all major sports, including the Olympics.

We have personally sold about $12,000 of supplements this year and with the help of our fitness coaches and members telling others about our program, we have sold about $50,000 combined.

This world class nutrition company, called AdvoCare, is the safest, most trusted nutritional products in the world. You can find out more about them by going to www.VictoryWithAdvoCare.com.

Note: Because we have been so successful with selling these products in our fitness business, we have decided to share all of our methods and provide training on how you can do the same thing. To find out more information go to www.Advo360.com

Pre-Made Meal Program for a Fitness Business

If you are fitness professional, you understand the importance of good nutrition. Running a fitness business myself, the biggest frustration I have with people, is them not eating correctly. Some fitness professionals out there believe you can’t do anything about that, you can’t force someone to do something they don’t want to do. And that’s true…kind of.

I already knew how profitable programs like Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers could be, but I didn’t want to have anything to do with those in my fitness business. Mainly because those meals are disgusting and just crap.

They provide about 60-70% carbs, 20-30% protein, and 5-10% fats. If you understand nutrition, you understand that this is a recipe for increased insulin and slower lean muscle growth. They work because they are low calorie meals.

Then I discovered Personal Trainer Food.

This is one of the slickest programs around for personal trainers and gym owners.

The meals are delicious and contain NO preservatives. They are 70% protein, 20% carbs, & 10% fats. Just the right mix to burn fat and build muscle as quickly as possible. And did I mention they are freakin delicious!

This meal program comes with a 30 day, 100% money back guarantee. If your client or member places an order and ends up not liking the food, you can just give them a buzz and ask for your money back, no questions asked.

Clients love them!

For about $14/day or $100/week (this is what the average American family spends on groceries each week), you can get breakfast, lunch, dinner, mid-morning & mid-afternoon snack. And did I mention that these meals are delicious?

Now my personal training clients don’t have to worry about buying the right food, preparing the right food, cleaning up, cooking, going to and from the store, etc. They get close to 300 meals a month shipped straight to their front door, already frozen.

If this seems like something your members or clients would like to hear more about you can click on my affiliate link and get some more information.

Fitness Professionals make $60-$80 for every meal program sold. With just 10 clients ordering you will make $600-$800 extra per month! With 100 members YOU can make $6000-$8000 per month plus bonuses.

Accountability Referral Program

The main reason people cancel their gym membership or stop coming to your bootcamp or personal training studio is because of a lack of results.

With AdvoCare and Personal Trainer Food, we are very confident in our fitness business. So confident that in 2012 we are going to a 90 Day Double Your Money Back Guarantee for our personal training business. (I would advise you not to do this unless you are very confident in your fitness business and you are positioning your business to be the place to come to get results).

Accountability is so important to get people to commit to anything. If you don’t believe me, think about it for a second. When you got married, or decided to go into the military, or to get a degree in whatever, you probably told 5-10 of your closest friends about your decision.

And in the process you just set yourself up for your success because every time you speak to one of these friends they are going to ask you about what you committed to. This “peer pressure” helps us push through the hard times when we feel like giving up.

So what’s all this have to do with referrals? And better yet, what does this have to do with a profit center?

Well, the main, and sometimes only, profit center running in a fitness business is membership sales. And if used correctly a good referral program can make up 20, sometimes as high as 60% of your total memberships sales for the year.

This is how it works.

When someone joins your health club or bootcamp/personal training studio, they are making a commitment to you and themselves that they are going to follow through to get the results they need. ie come to the gym, take their supplements, eat properly, drink plenty of water, etc.

They may or may not tell their friends that they just joined a program. As a result, they may or may not get the results they are looking for and stay long term.

When they join, we get them to give us 3-5 accountability partners. Friends, family, co-workers, high school football coach, their mailman, it really doesn’t matter…we just want them to include some other people in their decision to get healthy and stay fit.

We make this a requirement for our program, but it’s not necessary to do that in all cases. And sometimes, mainly for gyms or health clubs, it’s impossible.

Here is the information that you want to collect.

Accountability Partners:

Name, Address, Phone #, Email address, & Relationship

You can tell your new client that you’re going to contact their new accountability partner and let them know that they joined your program and what their goals are.

An accountability partners responsibility is to remind your client to stay positive and motivated and committed.

A cool thing happens with this referral program. The first thing that will happen is that you will weed out the people that are not going to stay truly committed (these people give your fitness business a bad name in your community because when they don’t get results, they tell everyone it is your fault).

Another benefit is that the accountability partner who would have never heard of you, discovers a fitness professional that really cares about getting their clients or members results.

The old saying is, “No one cares,until they know you care.” And this program shows everyone involved that you truly do care.

I hope you’ve gotten some good ideas.

Stay strong fit pro! And remember that there is always hope if you are willing to look for it.

I Need To Be BEAT Silly !

I’ve had a lot of other personal issues going on I want to let you know about, but now I have a new assistant helping me out & I’m going to start delivering some real powerful stuff that is going to give every health club owner out there an unfair advantage in the upcoming months.

So … My wife Deanaa gave birth to a beautiful 8 lb, 20″ little girl on September 9th, her name is Jasmyne Delia. While on the way to the hospital, I must have gotten 5-6 texts from friends & family members asking if my wife had went into labor yet.

While at the hospital during my wife’s 9-hour labor, her & I roughly got around 37 texts from friends & family members wanting updates on what was happening. That kind of blew my mind & got me thinking…( I know scary right?)

While at the hospital we received 5 phone calls & like I said roughly 37 texts. That is about a 6 to 1 ratio. That showed me that in the day & age we are living in the text message is a more powerful update tool than a phone call. I guess I shouldn’t have been shocked by that…I mean look what has happened with Twitter. Twitter has 75 million plus people shooting out 140 character or less updates 24-7. Many Fitness Business market their gym using twitter now.

So what’s all this have to do with fitness sales & fitness marketing? Well, as you know I have developed an extensive list of influential friends & professionals in not only the fitness industry, but other industries like home construction, internet marketing, venture capitalists & others. A new friend & partner introduced me to an amazing new tool that most of you guys have never heard of. This company specializes in mobile marketing.

So what is Mobile Marketing?

You know when your watching American Idol or Survivor or some other T.V. show & they ask you to “Text- Survivor to 55555″ this company developed the web based platform that provides that service. So I made it a point to do some research & make contact with the head cheese (so to speak) so I could provide some great, FREE information to all you health club owners & personal trainers looking for new creative ways to communicate to your clients, capture lead information & create a “cult like” following.

I got on the phone with Brian, with Cellit & recorded a 45-minute conversation & asked him some tough questions about his product & how it could help health club owners internationally achieve fitness business success.

Here are just a few of their clients YMCA, Taco Bell, KFC, ICEA, Chicago Tribune, Subway and MANY more . The conversation was packed FULL of great information for fitness business owners & I want to give it to you FREE for being a faithful subscriber to our “Sales Sniper Newsletter”.

WARNING!- I would like you to read the following paragraphs with the utmost care. What I’m about to say is not only a warning, but is also a friendly suggestion from a fellow professional in the health club industry.

If you need help, don’t wait, call today!

I have talked with several club owners in the past few months that are on the verge of destruction. The one thing that these health club owners have in common is a fear of change. The gym business as we know it is changing. Gone are the days of beating the competition by having the best instructor in town or the new Hammer Strength equipment. There is no such thing as “better” in the gym business, there is just “different.”

Let me explain what I am talking about. If you think your club is better because your equipment is new – you’re wrong! If you think your club is better because you have great group fitness instructors – you’re wrong! If you think you have the best health club in town because you have the cheapest memberships – you’re wrong! If you think that infrared sauna that your so proud of is the reason that you’re the best club in town – you’re wrong! Remember there is no such thing as “better,” only “different.”

GO TO HOLLYWOOD – Like it or not we are in the entertainment business. Just like those liberal nuts out in Hollywood, we need to attract an audience in order to make money. Now I don’t suggest doing anything as controversial as Hollywood does now-a- days, but if done correctly you can give your members and potential clients a sense of lights, camera, action – just like the pros do. Now there are many ways to do this, I am going to give you one example. We teach a system called “Manic Monday.” Monday is the busiest days in gyms all across the nation. It gives you the biggest audience to entertain. This is how it works: every Monday, pick a theme and run with it. Do giveaways (a 1 year free membership, tanning, personal training, Harley Davidson, sky diving, cruise, etc. MUST BRING A GUEST TO QUALIFY FOR GIVEAWAY), free food (wings from Hooters with the Hooters girls, pasta and meatballs from Olive Garden with staff, etc.), and entertainment (celebrity look-a-likes, blue grass band, Muppets with Big Bird, the crew of Jack Ass, etc.). Monday should be a day that catapults the rest of the week into high sales numbers and new guest visits. Also, and please don’t take this the wrong way, but your staff needs to look like they are in the fitness business. If they are severely overweight, smell like cigarettes, not groomed, or all pierced and tatted up on their face or neck – you are probably not conveying the image that you are a business that promotes health and fitness. Uniforms should be uniform. If it’s athletic gear, it all needs to match. In other words if you wear Nike shoes, you wear Nike shorts. And the shirt should always have your club logo on it. Higher end clubs are going to want to stay with the classic black on black or black and khaki.

BE GOOD AT A LOT OR PERFECT AT A LITTLE – Instead of trying to be everything to everybody, find something that you’re passionate about in your health club and build on that. Example: if you love the personal training aspect of your business, focus 99.9% of your energy at being perfect at personal training. That means from marketing and attracting clients, to training them, to follow through. If I drove into your city tomorrow and asked someone at GNC where I could get the best personal training at in this area, your club should be the first thing that comes to their mind. The way you control a market is not in big chunks, but in small specialized niches. Once you have dominated one niche, now you have the freedom and capital to move onto other things you are passionate about.

PULL THE TRIGGER – I talk to club owners all the time that are going out of business as we speak. Six thousand new gyms open up every year, and about the same close every year. Listen very closely, if your club is taking a hit because of the economy, new competition, poor management – YOU HAVE TO PULL THE TRIGGER! The old saying is, “If you want to learn how to skin a cat, call a cat skinner.” Fitness360 is the dominate company in health club marketing and club management for a reason. I can brag to you about all the money we could make you, but in my experience, knowledge is power. If we teach you the right way of doing things, then in the future you will be able to do it by yourself. Like the saying goes, “If I take you fishing I can feed you for a day, if I teach you how to fish, you can eat for life.” I talked to a club owner just yesterday and he told me that he was considering using a health club marketing company a year ago, but thought he would just try to do it by himself. A year later, he is closing his doors and having to say good bye, to not only his life’s savings, but also the thing he is passionate about. So as your friend and consultant, I’m asking you to pull the trigger and contact us if you are in need of help. We give one hour of free consultation over the phone, no strings attached. All you need to do is call 888-434-8360 and ask for Joshua. I’m the owner of the company and enjoy what I do and since nobody knows everything about everything, I think both you and I will be able to learn a lot in that short one hour conversation. We have the solutions to your problems, be it: club management (where we take over every aspect of running your club), or health club promotions (where we come in with our sales team and sale high price memberships at the rate of $29, $200, $360 per month), to consulting (where we will tell you how to do exactly what you need to do to be a winner in this industry, and not a loser). PULL THE TRIGGER today!

Remember Insanity is defined as follows:

“Doing the exact same thing and expecting a different result.”

In closing, if you’ve made the decision to just try to do it by yourself and figure it out, you’re crazy by definition. Remember doing the exact same thing and expecting different results is insanity!

Thank you and God Bless,

Fitness Sales is very easy if you understand a few key facts.

OK so let’s look at this for a minute. For this example my name is John. I walk into your health club expecting to get some pricing on how much memberships cost. Now I’ve never been a member of a health club in the past, but my doctors tell me that I need to start exercising if I want to live a little longer and increase my sex drive. So, reluctantly, I drive down to my local gym and now find myself standing at your front counter. The conversation will go something like this:

Joe Gym Owner:
Hey, how can I help you today?

John:
I would like to know what your rates are.

Joe Gym Owner:
Well, we have several rates. What exactly are you looking for?

John:
I have no idea. My doctor just told me I need to start exercising. So here I am.

Joe Gym Owner:
No problem. You can take a look at this rate sheet here, as you can see we have several plans.

John:
Okay well thank you very much. Do you mind if I take a look around?

Joe Jim owner:
No problem, help yourself.

Now I’m no rocket scientist but I’m pretty sure that John won’t be signing up at “Joe’s Gym.”

All John is thinking is:

You want me to pay you money to make me sweat? You must be joking!

I want to give you 3 keys to increase fitness sales. Each one of these keys depends on the next, if you take one of them away, the system won’t work. One of the best things about training someone to do fitness sales is that they’re learning curve is very small, and with proper training anybody can sell more fitness memberships. So let’s get right into.

Step 1 – Become a Puppy
If you’ve ever owned a dog then you know how excited they can be when you get home. Their little tail is wagging and they have a big smile on their face, they couldn’t be happier to see. After a long hard day of work, nothing can feel better than coming into an environment where you feel welcome and appreciated. Based on our conversation above, Joe missed this first step by a mile and Fitness Sales is made a lot harder. Matter of fact, Joe never even asked John what his name was. So the goal of this first step is to make the person feel safe and comfortable. The two things I would recommend you not doing in this first step is licking their face or chewing on their shoes, it’s too early for the shenanigans.

Step 2 – Get a Fingerprint
This is one of the most overlooked steps in the Fitness Sales process and yet the most important. I can’t tell you how many health clubs I’ve taken tours in across the country as an undercover customer. I love going in and seeing what it feels like from the customer’s point of view. I think sometimes when it comes to Fitness Sales, we forget how scary it can be to walk into an environment like a gym. The first thing that Joe should have done, after greeting John, was to get him to sign in on the guest registry and then get him to fill out a guest profile. This does two things: It allows Joe to collect important information about the customer to help sell a gym membership today or possibly down the road sometime & it makes the customer invest a little bit of their valuable time and gain the information they desire. I’ve consulted with hundreds of club owners on Fitness Sales, and them and the owners that are not doing this, will justify it by saying something to the effect of, “no one wants to give you all that information” or “that’s just a waste of time.” To those health club owners, I gently say, “are you kidding me?” If you walk into any of the top health clubs in the nation you will see this is a crucial part of the sales process. So the goal of step two is to get the customers “unique fingerprint,” or name, address, phone number and fitness/ health goals in their history. Fitness Sales can not be done correctly without a fitness profile, trust me.

Step 3 – Benefits VS Features
When Joe asked John what he was looking for John’s response was, “I don’t know.” Most of the people that walk into health clubs understand benefits and not features. Let me give you an example. When someone asked Joe what his gym offers and Joe were to respond with something like, “We have cardio, free weights, and circuit training.” You will find that someone that does not live a healthy lifestyle and has never worked out before, this is just a bunch of noise. You’re a gym, you should have those things. If I walked into a hotel and asked them what they offered, they wouldn’t tell me they have beds, TVs and towels. It’s a hotel, it’s expected that they have these things. The smart play is to sell benefits, not features. Let me give you an example: Instead of saying, “We have cardio,” say something like, “The cardio area we have will help you burn fat, lower your blood pressure, reduce stress, etc.” Fitness Sales, works best sharing benefits, not features.

Fitness sales is not rocket science. It’s simple the act of attracting, retaining and delivering the services your health club offers.

Our fitness marketing kit comes with a step by step training system that will increase your closing percentages and give you new and creative ways to attract new members, retain current members, and deliver the results that people in your fitness center are looking for. I hope you enjoyed this post and I hope God continues to bless your business.

Fitness Consultants

Could your health club or weight loss business benefit from fitness consulting? In today’s market, every member counts and many businesses are struggling to maintain membership roles as people make spending cutbacks. Deciding whether fitness consulting is the right thing for your business can be tricky. After-all, as the recession affects your member’s pocketbooks it affects yours. Many club owners are tempted to ‘batten down the hatches’ and attempt to weather the storm of economic uncertainty. Before you do that, however, there are some basic things you can consider to see if fitness consulting is right for your business now.

Fitness consulting from highly qualified professionals with solid industry experience could be just the thing to strengthen your business and help you weather the storm of economic uncertainty. One of the keys is gaining market exposure. It is possible to gain new members from the ‘couch potato’ set – those people who would not normally walk into a health club. Fitness consulting can help you create a marketing plan that reaches out to these people. Getting a broader spectrum of people through the door in the first place is one of the prime goals of fitness consulting. But what do you do with these people once they arrive?

Working with an experienced fitness consulting company, you can learn the steps to effectively sell memberships to the ‘uninitiated’. Someone who has never worked out in a gym before or thinks of gym as the place of school days torture will be sceptical about the benefits. They are likely to come through the door with a ‘prove it’ attitude. Working with a fitness consulting company you and your staff can gain the skills needed to effectively sell the benefits of working out at your club. Good fitness consulting is specifically aimed at helping you look at your business through fresh eyes – to see what the customer sees, and understand what they need.

In the end role, a fitness consulting company is there to help you re-evaluate your business, to expand upon the things that are working, and to make changes where necessary. With a focus on proper promotion, fitness consulting can help bring in new members from that segment of society that is not already on-board with the fitness revolution. If your business is flourishing, adding new members and expanding services in today’s economy, great! If not, you should call a professional fitness consulting company.

One of the biggest obstructions to staying on track for fitness is losing inducement. People are just starting an exercising schedule can find themselves quickly tired of the same routine. Keeping it fun is the key to a captivated member for long term.Imagine if you only had 1 channel of  TV to watch day in, day out. That would get old after a while. You would change the channel, pick up a book, or do anything you might to avoid something that you once enjoyed. That is why, most of us would require the services of a fitness coach in order to provide them the different portions of the fitness schedule in a more livelier style.

Fitness trainers are really those who are expert in analyzing and creating a fitness program that is right for you. They’re the ones who will work out your appropriateness to a certain program with regards to your “fitness level,” create the program according to your specific needs, and keep you stimulated and impressed by giving you activities that will not bore you.They may alter from the different trainings that they have, the health education they have acquired, and the skills that they have learned.Hence, it’s important to consider some factors which will establish if a certain fitness tutor is suitable for you. Here is how:

1.Certification
Like any item or product, the quality is often measured and determined thru the certification that goes with it. Hence, before you choose your fitness coach, it is critical to verify if the trainer is duly guaranteed by a very regarded fitness association. It is also best to choose a coach which has a CPR authorization or first aid qualifications.

The Top Tier of personal coach verification Organizations

NSCA
The national Strength & Conditioning organization was founded in 1978 and has 2 licenses. The CSCS or Certified Strength & Conditioning specialist which is a strength coach was accredited in 1985 and CPT or licensed personal coach which was licensed in 1993. The NSCA-CPT certification is understood to have one of the hardest examinations of all authentications. NSCA certifications need a four year varsity degree.

ACSM
The American College of Sports medicine was founded in 1954. Since it has been round the longest it gets incredible respect by employers.The ACSM takes a clinical approach to fitness as the majority of the material is more clinical than practical for the majority of gym users.It has respected authentications for personal training as well as other professions such as cardiac rehabilitation. Some ACSM licenses need a university degree in order to be able to sit for the exam.

The Next Tier of personal training authentications are excellent and Respected

NASM
The national Academy of Sports medicine was founded in 1987 and has since established itself as the’ new kid on the block’ as far as personal trainer licenses go. The NASM is fast growing and may become the largest personal validation, continuing education, and higher education supplier for exercise science.The NASM offers many authentications including the CPT or licensed personal coach which is starting to become one of the most well liked and respected personal trainer certifications in the world today. The CPT does not need a varsity degree but some other NASM licenses do.

ACE
The American Council on Exercise was founded in 1985 and is respected in the personal coaching community. ACE certified personal trainer has a rep as being the’ easy’ certification for beginners or outdated fitness trainers. Other Notable personal coach Certification Organizations
Certifications from other bodies such as the ISSA, AFAA, NFPT and Cooper Institute are also respected, but not almost as the four giant ones discussed formerly. You can read more on the top 5 personal trainer certifications. Remember there are hundreds if not thousands of personal training certifications!Some are as simple as taking a test online and getting your authentication in minutes. Beware of anything that sounds too good to be true. If you have an interest in a personal trainer certification ensure you check with the place you need to train at and see which licenses are accepted.Another smart idea is to chat with trainers with the authorization and ask if they like to recommend it. If you want If you need If you would like the sure thing sure bet dead cert, the first four authentications are a definite dead cert to get your a job as a personal trainer in most gyms in the country.

2.Education/Trainings
Be sure to select a fitness coach who had purchased a sufficient training and education as far as health and physical fitness is concerned.Even though it isn’t required, trainers who have purchased education connected with health or any other related field will have an edge over the others.

3.Knows the simplest way to give the right attention
A good fitness trainer should know the way to provide their client a undivided attention whenever their session is going on. In this way the trainer won’t get distracted and give his/her attention where it can be most useful.

4.Knows how to track development
